Checked today for Software Update on my At&t LG G2 D800 and a small 5.59MB update was found. Update didn't install because I am rooted but I grabed the file and uploaded to my Dropbox account in case it can be of use to someone. I am currently on 4.4.2 software KOT49I.D80020c

If I do not intend to ever use the Tap and Pay and / or Google Wallet, is there any benefit to taking this update?
I currently have software update "frozen" via Titanium

The update also mentions Google+... Not sure I've ever had an issue with Google+ on my phone though...

"Software version D80020k for the LG G2 is now available starting April 8, 2014. This update brings Host Card Emulation (HCE) support and updates to Google+."

I just updated today, was running 80020c with the modified boot.img (for custom recovery). Flashed all the way back to 80010c and went through the update process... 80010c -> 80010o -> 80010q -> 80020c -> 80020k -> Rooted via IORoot25. I keep cloud backups of data (SMS, MMS, call logs, etc.) and applications (apk + data), so I never worry about losing data by a factory reset.

Out of curiosity, what do you use for this? I'm currently using Go Backup, but wondered what other alternatives there are. Sometimes, Go Backup can be a little glitchy...

I've been using EaseBackup Pro for my backups. It's simple and has just worked for what I need. I've used Titanium Backup in the past, and messed with MyBackup Pro, Carbon and a few others.

Thanks for the reply. I also use EasyBackup Pro, but it also has some problems getting a full backup of the Apps to my Cloud. The SMS/MMS backup is flawless on EasyBackup! That's my preferred for those.

EDIT: Oops, I just saw my mistake. EASEbackup, not EASYbackup. I'll take a look at that one now.

Anyone out there that can make this a flashable zip? or cook it into a rom? I would if I knew how :(

This would require quite a bit of work. The update contains a dlpkgfile which nobody has figured out how to decompress. It's not a normal zip, bzip, gzip, lzip, lhzip, or anything I can decompress. Looking through the file's data it's obvious that it's compressed using opensource code, but LG must have put their own "spin" on it.

About the only thing I can think of doing to extract the changes would be to do a fresh factory reset, go through all the updates and take a snapshot of the /system partition prior to this small update, do the update, and then take another snapshot after the update. Using some file comparison tools such as Meld in Linux I can compare the before/after to capture the differences. Totally possible to do, just very time consuming. Here's the rough steps if someone wants to do it themselves...

1. revert back to D80010d (LGFlashtool)
2. use OTA process to upgrade to 80020c
3. root using IOroot25
4. take a snapshot of /system partition using "dd"
5. use OTA process to upgrade to 80020k
6. take a second snapshot of /system partition using "dd"
7. mount snapshots on Linux desktop
8. compare mounted snapshots using Meld

This will only capture differences on the /system partition. If there are updates to other partitions then those partitions would also have to extracted and compared as well.
